Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Chesepian or Chesapeake were a Native American tribe who inhabited the area now known as South Hampton Roads in the U.S. state of Virginia prior to their annihilation by the Powhattan Confederacy early in the 17th century. They occupied an area which is now the Norfolk, Portsmouth, Chesapeake, and Virginia Beach areas. To their west were the members of the Nansemond tribe. The main village of the Chesepians was called Skicoak, located in the present independent city of Norfolk. The exact location of Skicoak in unknown. It may have been near the junction of the eastern and southern branches of the Elizabeth River in downtown Norfolk. Other evidences suggest it was located in the Pine Beach area of Sewell''s Point. At that location, a large Native American burial mound was discovered in close proximity to a 20th century community named Algonquin Village.
